Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Moon Sees the Past

Nan Ling broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, but what he never expected was that the more terrifying was still to come.

That night, it was Yueya who put a broken intestine grass in the heart of the moon snake god.

Innocent as she is, she only knows that this intestine-breaking grass is inedible, it will cause serious internal bleeding, and there is no way to detoxify, it is a fierce and strong poisonous weed. But what she didn't know was that Wangshu was a spirit beast, and how could she hurt it if she was a mortal inferior herb? She grinded the herb and wrapped it in the atrium of her heart, then hurriedly put on her hood, picked up her things, and headed for the Ebony Shrine.

During the day, a huge "dragon sucking water" blew in the northern ruins of the sea, causing a huge tsunami. The frenzied wave engulfed the woodland around the North Stygian Forest, and the torrential rain continued for a whole day, covering the entire territory of the North Stygian Forest. Lightning and thunder roared, clouds and fog were miserable, the sky collapsed, and in some places it even became a "lake" covered with trees at the bottom of the water.

In the evening, the rain lightened, but it still crackled. The water level of Tsukimi Lake has skyrocketed, and it will soon flood the entire village. The villagers had no choice but to prepare the village to hide in a nearby mountain. Taking advantage of the panic of the crowd, Yueya avoided her gaze and took the opportunity to sneak into the secret room where the heart of the fox was stored in the village, and hurriedly poisoned her. Then he took the initiative to ask Ying, to disregard the danger of his life, and send sacrifices to the Moon Snake God.

The people of the village wept bitterly and worshipped her as a saint. I was moved by her righteous spirit and unswerving faith to the death. But who knew that she, the Holy Maiden, was there to kill the gods they loved and worshipped?

Yueya stumbled in the pouring rain and finally came to the Ebony Shrine. The ebony shrine was soaked in the rain and shiny black, the raindrops of beans were loud, smashing on the ground, on the branches and leaves, on the ebony, deafening, the white rain curtain blocked Yueya's sight, she was soaked, extremely cold, the ground under her feet had turned into mud, and it was more difficult to walk one step than ten steps.

In the heavy rain that makes people can't open their eyes, the ebony shrine of the black hole seems to suck people in. She trembled and held her heart wrapped in huge leaves, and knelt respectfully in front of the ebony shrine, the front steps of the shrine in the rain were cold and slippery, and she shivered.

After a few calls, the dark door of the Ebony Shrine creaked open, and two points of essence light shot out of the darkness, Yueya was stunned, and hurriedly stood up and walked inside. The short, cold, slippery steps, she walked in fear, fell twice, but did not care. Enshrined her heart in front of Dark Ryu, Yueya was too frightened to look up. Her heart was like a big fish stranded on dry ground, throbbing wildly, trying to jump out of her chest.

She lowered her head, she couldn't see how the Moon Snake God had taken the three hearts, she only knew that the Moon Snake God suddenly let out an unprecedented angry scream, and the door of the shrine suddenly opened, and a huge and sinister snake tail was about to roll towards her!

As soon as it was extremely fired, a white shadow whistled and split the rain curtain, rushing straight with a fierce wind, biting the huge snake tail and biting wildly, Yueya was stunned, and was shocked by the huge shaking of the shrine.

The white wolf is the messenger of the Moon Serpent God, and it is it that conveys the oracle of the Moon Serpent God to help the villagers hunt the heart of the hideous, why is it attacking the Moon Serpent God now?

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the sea and sky seemed to turn upside down. Yueya rolled down the shrine one after another, knocked her head, in a trance, everything seemed to be silent, the picture began to overlap, rotate, and separate, and the cold rain slapped her cheeks painfully. Huge wails, roars, and crashing sounds came from the shrine, and a few drops of blood splattered out, all of which made the dizzy Yueya tremble like chaff.

Eventually, she could no longer bear the convulsions and fainted in the pouring rain.

I don't know how long later, her eyes were pierced by the dazzling sunlight, and she slowly opened her eyes, only to find that she was lying in her own home. The moon bone lay on the bed and fell asleep tiredly, her hair messy.

Yueya woke up her father in a low voice, Yuegu looked at Yueya in confusion with slightly sleepy eyes, and then gradually burst into tears, father and daughter hugged their heads and cried, but the reasons for their pain were different.

One is because the assassination failed, and the other is because the daughter finally woke up.

But according to the depiction of the lunate, things take an unexpected turn. That day, the rain stopped in the middle of the night. After the rain, the sky is clear, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce. The wounded white wolf with a long one-horned white snake in his mouth and the unconscious Yueya lying on his back appeared at the entrance of the village.

The villagers were so frightened that no one dared to come forward. They recognized that the white wolf was holding the true body of the Moon Serpent God in its mouth, and they were all stunned, unable to say a word.

The white wolf threw down the corpse of the white snake, lay down gently, put Yueya on the ground, and left without looking back. The villagers looked at each other, stared at each other with wide eyes, and then knelt down tremblingly, and kept kneeling in front of the corpse of the white snake.

"What happened?" asked Nanling.

Later, the white wolf was called a god-killing monster by the angry villagers. ”

Yueya seemed to remember some painful memory, and her body trembled: "They, those crazy people, in order to gain the power of the gods, actually - actually - ate the corpse of the Moon Snake God-"

Nan Ling's heart sank.

"What do you mean?"

After that day, Moon Bone, as an elder, gathered the villagers together and told them that it was the white wolf who killed the gods. The white wolf is a god-killing monster beast that betrays the gods. In the days that followed, without the Moon Serpent God, everything changed.

The first thing that changed was the so-called children of miracles. Then came all the resurrected villagers. These believers, like monsters out of control, have a drastic change in temperament, full of violence, uncertain weather, and eat flesh and blood raw! One second they were still greeting with a smile, and the next second, they opened their bloody mouths and frantically threw themselves at their relatives and friends!

That night, the frenzied cannibalism began, and the Elder Moon Bone said that this was the Moon Serpent God's punishment for the village, a 'divine punishment'. Because we didn't protect the gods, we let the god-killing monsters blaspheme the gods.

The village was shrouded in great fear. Elder Moon Bone said that in order to calm the calamity, the only way to "become one" with the Moon Snake God was to "become one," and under his leadership, the villagers and the villagers actually devoured the corpse of the white snake separately! That incident was the first so-called "divine sacrifice." ”

Although the 'divine punishment' was then quelled, the riot was stopped, and although it seemed that the peace of the past had been restored, it was all an illusion, a self-deception, and the so-called divine sacrifice did not extinguish the bloodthirsty desires of the villagers, but made the whole village even more frenzied!

In the days that followed, Elder Moonbone's status became unprecedentedly high, but he was no longer the kind-hearted father he used to be for the sake of the village. He has become the second Moon Serpent God, controlling the entire village.

He instructed the villagers to arrest and lure the strangers by mistake, kill them, make them into meals, and serve them for the villagers to eat.

The violence and bloodlust of the villagers were temporarily suppressed, and the village maintained the illusion of prosperity and harmony. For some reason, since then, the village seems to have been abandoned by time, and the people of the village are no longer aging. Therefore, the frenzied worship of the Elder Moon Bone has plunged the entire village into extreme madness and weirdness......"

"That's why Elder Moon Bone keeps me again and again. They want to sacrifice me to the gods. After hearing this, Nan Ling frowned heavily.

It was a little dark in the room, and he lit a candle casually. The flickering firelight reflected the angular side of his face, making his deep eyes shine with a determined and sparkling light in the darkness.

"You're so different, I don't know what Elder Luna plans to do to you. No stranger has ever lived so long, and no stranger has ever participated in the 'harvest' of hunts in preparation for the sacrifice of the gods. You're a monk, aren't you?" asked Yueya softly.

Nanling sighed. Silence replaced the answer.

He didn't really have much fear, more than a sense of sadness, helplessness, and hysterical madness that he had experienced.

Mortals are so weak, so humble, and so hungry for power, so strong.

It's not their fault that it has evolved into what it is today.

However, Nanling believes that everything is caused by this so-called Moon Snake God. It is the demons who ravage and demagogue, taking advantage of the ignorance and fear of mortals, that have caused today's situation, mortals themselves are innocent, and weakness is not a sin. The village of Tsukimi, although living in dire straits, cannot be abandoned!

Taking the safety of the people in the world as his own responsibility, Nan Ling will definitely go all out to give up his master's deathbed entrustment! He secretly made up his mind and thought so.
